At the end of the day, everyone on here is basically talking their version of bollocks... mostly rehashed versions of the media conditioning we are all regularly subjected to, with a bit of personal flair...

to subscribe blindly to news stories that are selectively fed to you to tap into the tribal and competitive nature of humankind (same as most pack animals) and sway public opinion to further the causes of wealthy and manipulative folk chasing resources and arms contracts could also perhaps be viewed as a little bit silly
